Bangladesh and Bangladesh-U.S. Relations
Bangladesh and Bangladesh-U.S. Relations Updated October 17, 2017 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44094 Bangladesh and Bangladesh-U.S. Relations Summary Bangladesh (the former East Pakistan) is a Muslim-majority nation in South Asia, bordering India, Burma, and the Bay of Bengal. It is the world’s eighth most populous country with nearly 160 million people living in a land area about the size of Iowa. It is an economically poor nation, and it suffers from high levels of corruption. In recent years, its democratic system has faced an array of challenges, including political violence, weak governance, poverty, demographic and environmental strains, and Islamist militancy. The United States has a long-standing and supportive relationship with Bangladesh, and it views Bangladesh as a moderate voice in the Islamic world. In relations with Dhaka, Bangladesh’s capital, the U.S. government, along with Members of Congress, has focused on a range of issues, especially those relating to economic development, humanitarian concerns, labor rights, human rights, good governance, and counterterrorism. The Awami League (AL) and the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) dominate Bangladeshi politics. When in opposition, both parties have at times sought to regain control of the government through demonstrations, labor strikes, and transport blockades, as well as at the ballot box. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been in office since 2009, and her AL party was reelected in January 2014 with an overwhelming majority in parliament—in part because the BNP, led by Khaleda Zia, boycotted the vote. The BNP has called for new elections, and in recent years, it has organized a series of blockades and strikes. -

Press Release 24 December 2015
Press Release 24 December 2015 Launch of a new UCI World Ranking The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) is pleased to announce the launch of a new UCI World Ranking (for men’s professional road cycling, reflecting a similar ranking in place already for women’s professional road cycling). The UCI World Ranking – individual and nations – will be published in parallel with the UCI WorldTour Ranking (individual, teams and nations). The new UCI World Ranking will be published once a week, each Monday, from January 11th 2016. It will take into account the results of the 52 previous weeks (a rolling system, similar to that of the ATP in tennis). This means it will only come fully into effect one year after its introduction. Its calculation will not be based on a specific series, as is the case with the UCI WorldTour Ranking, but on the entire UCI International Road Calendar (UCI WorldTour, UCI Continental Circuits, UCI World Championships, National and Continental Championships, Olympic Games and Continental Games). All riders who mark points in the races concerned will be part of the UCI World Ranking, including riders who are not members of UCI WorldTeams. The new UCI World Ranking was the subject of a thorough consultation process which took into account the interests and wishes of riders, teams, organisers and National Federations as well as media and fans. In addition, it reflects the most recent discussions of the UCI Road Commission and Professional Cycling Council. These modifications will not affect the UCI Continental Rankings, which will remain just as important on the continents and will continue to be calculated. -
Non-Retroactivity in Prosecuting Crimes Against Humanity and International Crimes Tribunal Bangladesh
Journal of Politics and Law; Vol. 13, No. 3; 2020 ISSN 1913-9047 E-ISSN 1913-9055 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Non-retroactivity in Prosecuting Crimes against Humanity and International Crimes Tribunal Bangladesh Maruf Billah1 1 Graduate School of International Development, Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan Correspondence: Maruf Billah, Graduate School of International Development, Nagoya University, Nagoya, Furo- Cho, Chikusa-Ku, Nagoya 464-8601, Japan. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Received: July 18, 2020 Accepted: August 10, 2020 Online Published: August 30, 2020 doi:10.5539/jpl.v13n3p180 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v13n3p180 Abstract The International Crimes Tribunal Bangladesh (ICTB) was set up by Bangladesh through the adaptation of the International Crimes Tribunal Act 1973, as an internal mechanism trying to prosecute and punish Bangladeshi perpetrators who committed international crimes in Bangladesh liberation war in 1971. After a long disappearance from the public eye, the Tribunal was reemerged in 2010. The recent cases decided by the Tribunal have revealed that the international crimes; namely, crimes against humanity, were allegedly committed in 1971, while the relevant Statute was enacted in 1973, and was implemented in 2010. Recently, the ICTB is prosecuting crimes against humanity retroactively, which might have violated the prohibition of penalizing certain conducts committed by the perpetrators before the enforcement of such conduct as a law banning such demeanor as an offense. Therefore, this study firstly analyzes the rule against retroactivity in international criminal law. Secondly, it investigates the justification of the retroactive criminalization of crimes against humanity at the first International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, and its crystallization into the regional and international legal instruments. -

Le grand prix cycliste d’Isbergues est créé en 1945, par le secrétaire général de la mairie avec l’aide de quelques commerçants pour donner une animation supplémentaire à l’occasion du raccroc de la ducasse du Pont-à-Balques. Devant le succès populaire rencontré, il est décidé de l’organiser tous les ans le 2e lundi de septembre jusqu’en 1954, où il prend sa place définitive au calendrier le 38e dimanche de l’année. Il devient officiel en 1947 avec l’appui technique du Vélo Club de Lillers, club affilié à la FFC, puis de l’US Saint-Omer en 1948 et 1949. 1950 marque un virage important : le Club Cycliste Isbergues Molinghem est créé quelques mois plus tôt, et devient l’organisateur jusqu’en 1988 où l’Association pour l’Organisation du GPI voit le jour et prend la relève. Appelé Grand Prix des commercants du Pont-à-Balques les 2 premières années, puis successivement Grand Prix de la ville d’Isbergues, Grand Prix cycliste international d’Isbergues, il devient en 2006 le Grand Prix international d’Isbergues-Pas•de•Calais. Les premières éditions sont disputées par des coureurs amateurs et indépendants. En 1949, placé sous l’égide de la FFC, il est ouvert à toutes les catégories en individuel y compris professionnelles. -
